We are looking for short movies created by individuals (not by a company -- although individuals working in the movie industry are welcome to submit work done on their free time) involving the use of Computer Graphics related technologies. We encourage people to submit their work, especially students, so that it can be projected during a dedicated day.

New this year, we have created various categories that are more adapted to a wide range of participants:
- Short Animation Movie, Professional level
- Short Animation Movie, Amateur level
- Technical Video or Game Demo
A description of each category can be found in the detailed Call For Animations. The two best movies in each category will get several fantastic awards! Selected videos for projection will get a certificate of acceptance.

Submission is open to everyone, free of charge.
